1/2 = (1×6)/(2×6) = 6/12
one half is 6 twelfths and 7 twelfths is more than 6 twelfths
No.
Seven twelfths (7/12) is greater than one half (1/2). To compare them, you can convert one half to twelfths, which is six twelfths (6/12). Since 7/12 is greater than 6/12, seven twelfths is the larger fraction.
Half (1/2) is equivalent to 6/12 when expressed with a common denominator. Five twelfths (5/12) is smaller than 6/12. Therefore, half is bigger than five twelfths.
If you cut 2 halves into twelfths, each half can be divided into 6 twelfths (since 1 half equals 6 twelfths). Therefore, cutting 2 halves results in 2 times 6 twelfths, which equals 12 twelfths. Thus, there are 12 fraction pieces when cutting 2 halves into twelfths.

1/2 over 1/12 = 12/2 = 6 there are 6 twelfths in a half.

There are six twelfths in one half.Seven twelfths is more than six twelfths.Therefore seven twelfths is larger than one half.
One Half.6/12 isequivalentto one half so: 3/12<1/2 (Is Less Than)
There are 24 halves in 12, so there must be 1/24 twelves in 1/21/24 = 0.04166Another Take:I may be misunderstanding the question. The above doesn't seem to work too well either. The question originally read: How many twelves are in one half? This did not seem to me to make sense so I changed it to: How many twelfths are in one half? I have noticed that students sometimes will not make a distinction between twelves and twelfths, five and fifths and so forth.The question is How many twelfths (or twelves) are in one half, and not how many halves are in 12. So I conclude that the questioner wants to know that 6 twelfths is equal to half.
3 quarters is 9 twelfths, so 9 twelfths minus 3 twelfths is 6 twelfths, which is also a half.
By converting to a common denominator (convert 1/2 to twelfths), and comparing. Because 5 is less than half of 12.
